Hi Mikael,
The difference between synchronous (sync) and asynchronous (async) events is related to how the events are processed by the application.
In synchronous events, the application will wait for the event to complete before moving on to the next task. This means that any other events or tasks that may be waiting in the queue will be put on hold until the synchronous event is completed. In your example, the OnTimerEvent is a synchronous event, so the application will wait for it to complete before moving on to any other events or tasks.
In contrast, asynchronous events do not hold up the application while they are being processed. Instead, they are executed independently of other events and tasks. This means that other events or tasks can be executed while the asynchronous event is being processed. In your example, the OnAsynchTimer and OnAsyncResize events are asynchronous, so they do not hold up the application while they are being processed.
It is important to note that the behavior of synchronous and asynchronous events can vary depending on the specific application and programming language being used. It is always best to consult the documentation or seek advice from an experienced developer if you are unsure about the behavior of a specific event or function.
I hope this helps clarify the difference between synchronous and asynchronous events for you!
